About the Item
COASTAL DESCENT
Size: 64 x 79.5 cm (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A very soothing mid-century modernist painting that captures a sun-drenched coastal village, executed in oil onto canvas.
The viewer is positioned atop a steep stone path that winds between whitewashed walls, terracotta roofs, and geometric stone facades, descending toward the vivid blue sea. Three figures clad in dark robes – possibly local women carrying items on their heads – add a quiet human rhythm to the otherwise architectural scene.
Rendered in flattened planes and simplified forms, the painting embraces a distinctly modernist approach. The brushwork is thick and confident, with textures and scumbled surfaces lending weight to the cobbled path and sky alike. The palette is subdued yet radiant: earthy browns and clay reds contrast with greys, chalky whites, and Mediterranean blues, invoking both warmth and distance.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary distressed style wood frame. The painting has small areas of craquelure present, but the paint layer is stable and it is in good condition overall.
Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible. Should you need more photos or wish to ask us more questions regarding an item's condition, feel free to contact us, we are always happy to help.
